Catching up with Life Lately. And Projects.

This summer, I feel like my life has been exponentially busier. Its like someone has hit ‘fast forward’ on my life. I spend my days accomplishing everything and nothing. I do the same tasks of daily life each day.

My house remains a disaster.

I desperately need to have a professional photo taken of my children. I tried to take them out for a photo shoot one day.



My oldest turned five. He stopped going to bed at night. He’s up until we go to bed. It’s been a real issue.

Sewing. I sort of miss doing that. I made another pair of shoes for my littlest guy. He’s working on walking alone!

Blue and Gray Striped Shirt

You guys! I made another shirt. That actually fits. And the seams aren’t all wavy and crazy.

In My Etsy Shop: Hair Ties with Fold Over Elastic

Come on over to my Etsy shop and check out my new listings for fold over elastic hair ties!



I made some of these as gifts for friends back at Christmas time. They were very well-received. A few friends suggested I sell them.  I ordered some new printed elastic and they are even better.

These are seriously the most wonderful hair ties and won’t cause damage to your hair. So if you don’t feel like making your own, check them out in my Etsy shop.

Gingham Coastal Craze Baggies

I made another pair of coastal craze baggies (pattern by Peek-A-Boo Patterns). The last two pairs were for the middle and youngest guys. I made a size 6 since I used a gingham, non-stretch fabric (he would usually wear a size 5).
